Brad Stine on Shelton's Montreal Title-Run, Tommy Paul 7.0 and The Top Storylines Ahead of The US Open

Veteran coach Brad Stine joins the podcast for a wide-ranging chat about his work coaching Tommy Paul, and some of the biggest storylines in the men's game as tennis takes over North America. Stine reacts to Ben Shelton's second straight title at the Canadian Masters, and explains why he's so dangerous on the court. The coach dives into the depth of American tennis, the closeness of this group of US men, and what makes rising player Learner Tien so special.

Stine also sheds light on his long-running partnership with Tommy Paul, and recaps the highs and lows of the 2026 season. He goes in depth about how Paul bounced back after heartbreak in Miami to win his first clay court title in Houston, and explains why "Tommy Paul 7.0" is the best version yet. The coach also discusses several other topics including Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner's health creating an opening for the field at The US Open, Iga Swiatek's joy returning in her title-run in Toronto, and what he really thinks of the crowded and confusing tennis schedule.
